Today, I was working at the checkout of a nearly empty store, so I picked up an empty box, closed my eyes, and slow-danced with it to the 80s love ballad playing on the radio. I don't know what's worse, dancing with a box, or opening my eyes to see ten or so wary customers waiting to be served. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Same thing different taste
WTF are you doing?
Today, while at the bakery section of my local supermarket, I heard the beat of what I assumed was a song playing. I really got into it, and bobbed my head and danced a little. After getting some strange looks, I realized the "beat" was a machine mixing frosting. FML
Today, I was bored and all alone while cleaning at work. This led me to start passionately doing a ballet dance in the empty corridor. I promptly stopped as I remembered the surveillance cameras. FML
Mom moment
Today, I thought it would be funny to bust out some dance moves in the middle of the supermarket to embarrass my teenage daughter. As I was trying to the moonwalk, I slipped on a wet spot and crashed into a stack of cereal boxes. FML
Never felt more lonely
Today, I was in my local supermarket's frozen aisle and I started doing a little dance of joy because my favorite ice cream was on sale. I turned around to see my ex and his new girlfriend watching me. FML
Chuds
Today, at my retail job, I was trying to get a large amount of cardboard to the trash and had a short path to maneuver through displays and customers. As I'm coming down the aisle, a customer sees me and stops to look at a coffee cup display, directly in my path. FML
Today, I spent nearly an hour helping a customer pick out an engagement ring. I rang him up, picked out a super cute box for the ring, and wished him luck. Later I realized I never put the ring inside the box. FML
Classic non-ironical Ironic
Today, I had a shift at my job at a grocery store that was full of rude and impatient customers. Someone dropped a bottle of wine and it shattered next to me. I found a half-eaten packet of sushi behind some magazines. The scale on another register broke. "Ironic" by Alanis Morissette played on the store radio at the end. FML
That's that me espresso
Today, I stayed late at the office to finish work and thought I was alone. I put on my headphones and started singing along to Sabrina Carpenter at full volume while filing paperwork. Halfway through, I turned around to see our cleaning staff staring at me. FML
Today, I went to the dentist; no one was in the waiting room so I danced around and mouthed songs that were on the radio. It wasn't till after I went to the counter and saw the receptionists laughing like a pack of hyenas that I realized there was a camera. FML
Today, as I was walking back inside I noticed my mop leaning on the wall next to my door. I picked it up and started slow dancing with it, imagining it was the girl I'm in love with. I didn't notice my neighbours bunched up at their window laughing. FML

Ah, the things we do when we think no one is watching.

Not sure why you would do that if there was still a chance people would still be shopping in the store.

It's amazing that you weren't fired honesty. That would be grounds for firing at my job :/

I don't know if I would want to work at a place I can't express myself. I have my music playing low at work and if I go to ring up someone and there is a wood part in the song I'll rock out a little in front of them. Nothing too hardcore but a little head banging.what do you do?

There's a difference between a little head banging, and getting so distracted you don't notice ten customers are waiting to be checked out. Although, I suspect a bit of exaggeration on OP's part- were they really dancing with their eyes closed THAT long? And why didn't any of the customers say anything?

They were too busy uploading the video to youtube

If it was me id let it ride. I try to treat people how I want to be treated so I'd just wait till their moment is over. The people were probably entertained.

That's hilarious, you should have just made a joke about it and laughed at yourself though.

So you got caught indulging your fantasy, laugh it off. Could have been worse, you could have been caught dancing with a cucumber or a sausage... Think about it...

Dancing with any inanimate object is definitely embarrassing.

Dancing with a sausage definitely would've been the wurst possible situation.

BongRips - You may want to lay off the weed for a while. It seems to be making you stupid.

Those lucky customers. They walked into the store hoping to buy stuff and ended up getting a free show as well. I hope they tipped you well.

At least they got a free dance show.

It always happens that way.

You must have had the crowd mesmerized if they just watched without saying anything. You and Mr. Box must have tore it up.
